Method Detail

validateNewValueOnInstance

public static void validateNewValueOnInstance(java.lang.Object value,
                                              ModelFactory validatorFactory,
                                              PropertyCollection<?,?> controlledPropertyInstance,
                                              boolean validateParent)

validate New Value On Instance

Parameters:

value - the new value to validate

validatorFactory - the factory for validation

controlledPropertyInstance - the property instance to validate against

validateParent - option to validate the parent of the new value. If set to true, new values that are owned by value must have a null parent to be valid.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if validation fails

validateValueParentIfNotReference

private static void validateValueParentIfNotReference(java.lang.Object value,
                                                      PropertyCollection<?,?> controlledPropertyInstance)

validate Value Parent If Not Reference. This method will throw an exception if the new value has a non-null parent and the instance is by value.

Parameters:

value - the value to validate

controlledPropertyInstance - the property instance to use

validateValueTypeOnInstance

public static void validateValueTypeOnInstance(java.lang.Object value,
                                               PropertyCollection<?,?> controlledPropertyInstance)

validate that a value has the right type to match a property instance

Parameters:

value - the value to validate

controlledPropertyInstance - the property instance to validate against.

validateCollectionType

private static void validateCollectionType(java.lang.Object value,
                                           PropertyCollection<?,?> controlledPropertyInstance,
                                           PropertyCollection<?,?> propertyInstanceInstanceType)

validateCollectionType

Parameters:

value - the value to validate

controlledPropertyInstance - the property instance of the value

propertyInstanceInstanceType - the value type

validatePotentialListFixedInstance

private static void validatePotentialListFixedInstance(PropertyCollection<?,?> controlledPropertyInstance,
                                                       PropertyCollection<?,?> propertyInstanceInstanceType,
                                                       PropertyCollection<?,?> collectionValue,
                                                       PropertyCollection<?,?> valueType)

validate a Potential List Fixed Instance

Parameters:

controlledPropertyInstance - the property instance holding the value

propertyInstanceInstanceType - the type of the value

collectionValue - the value to validate

valueType - the value type

validateEnumerationType

private static void validateEnumerationType(java.lang.Object value,
                                            PropertyCollection<?,?> propertyInstanceInstanceType)

validate Enumeration Type

Parameters:

value - the value to validate

propertyInstanceInstanceType - the value type

validateBasicType

private static void validateBasicType(java.lang.Object value,
                                      PropertyCollection<?,?> propertyInstanceInstanceType)

validate Basic Type

Parameters:
